I have a dog with a fairly mild case of MegaE and anything "chunky" is a problem. I used to blend all the food but I've found that this one is such a smooth and well-mixed pate that just adding some water and stirring well makes it acceptable for her to eat. I'm delighted it is also full of good ingredients and it's been very easy on her digestive system. Oh yeah - and she loves it and has turned up her nose to many other kinds.
